the PM segment with mcdonnell interviewing her is supremely uncomfortable listening

having said that, she's less disingenuous about what she's doing than the average news ltd hack

"There's more to the Click Frenzy webfail than is being reported. The Click Frenzy website was not down because of millions of shoppers, but millions of queries. There is a huge difference. These millions of queries were a result of the hundreds of thousands of people logging on, and all the feedback from the advertisement trackers overloading the database with queries which are sent between server and client. According to one shopper on my FB feed 'it takes three-plus pages to get through to the actual offer, and each of those pages has three or more advertisements on it'. Pretty simple to figure out what happened, as this is precisely how DDOS attacks occur. The simple solution to get the site working would have been to remove the advertisements, or at the very least make them static (but then the click-throughs couldn't be counted, so Click Frenzy couldn't claim to sell millions of impressions to the gullible advertisers and retailers who spent their money with them initially or in the future).

bishop carried weight in the party for being the organiser/dealmaker; traditionally when the deputy is good at this, it helps the leader. with abboott hanging her out to day so comprehensively by not doing his onwn dirty work, she is now a diminished figure in the party (can't master a brief). the people who want to roll abbott but can't get the numbers to do so (because he's protected by the right nationally) will tear bishop to shreds instead. there are no credible alternative deputies who can cover for abbott's many shortcomings.
